A compartmental model for Xylella fastidiosa diseases with explicit vector seasonal dynamics
The bacterium Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) is mainly transmitted by the spittlebug, Philaenus spumarius, in Europe, where it has caused significant economic damage to olive and almond trees.
Spatial effects in parasite induced marine diseases of immobile hosts
Compartmental models of epidemic transmission in marine sessile organisms, available only recently, are based on non-spatial descriptions in which space is homogenised and parasite mobility is not explicitly accounted for.
Vector-borne diseases with non-stationary vector populations: the case of growing and decaying populations
We also show that growing vector populations produce a delay in the epidemic dynamics when compared to the case of the stationary vector population.
Modelling Parasite-produced Marine Diseases: The case of the Mass Mortality Event of Pinna nobilis
We show that it is possible to simplify the model, including a reduction to the standard SIR model if the parameters fulfil certain conditions.
